Welcome to Backyard Theatre Productions


We are a group of Wellington theatre enthusiasts dedicated to bringing innovative and exciting theatre to Wellington audiences. Details of our production for April 2010 are below.

I am a Camera

By Jan van Druten, directed by the highly talented Robert Hickey

The play is based on Christopher Isherwood's stories about Berlin in 1929/30 and later was used as the basis for the film Cabaret.

The characters are:
Christopher Isherwood - an unsuccessful author
Sally Bowles - a night club entertainer
Frau Schneider - landlady
Natalia Landeauer - a Jewish girl
Fritz Wendel - an impetuous lover
Clive Mortimer - a big, brash American
Mrs Watson-Courtneidge - Sally's mother

The play focuses on Sally Bowles and her relationships with Clive, a rich American who promises her a stage career and then abandons her, and with Isherwood, who Sally insists never inquires about her past.



In, addition we are proud to be associated with Kapital Kids Theatre (KKT), bringing the best children's theatre to Wellington's youngsters. For more information, visit the KKT website here.
